The raids were carried out on Friday after the ATS received a tip off that Ahmedabad-resident Manoharlal Enani and Kuldeepsinh Rajpurohit of Rajasthan had set up mephedrone manufacturing units. A watch was kept on the movements of Enani and Rajpurohit as well as their accomplices, following which raids were carried out on units in Sirohi and Jodhpur in Rajasthan and Piplaj village in Gandhinagar and Bhaktinagar industrial area of Amreli district in Gujarat, an ATS release informed. ''The ATS recovered 22.028 kilograms of mephedrone and 124 kilograms of liquid mephedrone, collectively worth Rs 230 crore. Rajpurohit was nabbed during the raid at Gandhinagar and Enani was held from Sirohi,'' it said. As per the probe, Enani was in jail for seven years after he was nabbed by DRI in 2015 for his involvement in the production of mephedrone at an industrial unit in Rajasthan. All the accused are inter-connected and were procuring the raw material from a company in Vapi industrial area of Valsad district, the release informed. ''Investigations are on to find out since when they have been producing the drug, whether they have sold it in the past and who else were part of the entire cartel,'' said the release.

Three Indian Women Tragically Pass in US Car Accident; Home Village Honors Their Memory
Three Indian Women Tragically Pass in US Car Accident; Home Village Honors Their Memory Anand (Guj), Apr 27(PTI) Three women originally hailing from Gujarats Anand district and settled in the United States were killed in a deadly car crash in the US state of South Carolina, their relatives here said on Saturday. The accident occurred on Friday on the Staunton Bridge Road along Interstate 85 near Lakeside Road, according to the South Carolina Highway Patrol troopers, said a media report. The overspeeding car jumped at least 20 feet in the air before crashing into trees, it said. Relatives in Gujarat have identified the three as Rekha Dilip Patel, Sangita Bhavnesh Patel and Manisha Rajendra Patel. They belonged to Vasna (Borsad) and Kavitha villages in Borsad taluka of the states Anand district. The women were also related, they said. The husbands of Rekha and Sangita Dilip Patel and Bhavnesh Patel, respectively are brothers, while Manishas husband Rajendra is a cousin of the two men. Except for Sangita's father Vitthalbhai, who lives near Kavitha village, all other family members of the three women and their husbands had shifted to the US long back. I have learnt that my daughter and two other women have died in a road accident on Friday in the US. A fourth woman, also a relative, has been admitted to a hospital there. They were going for an outing, Vitthalbhai Patel told reporters here. He said Sangita never returned to India after moving there nearly 20 years ago. His son had come here a few months ago for his marriage-related shopping, said Vitthalbhai. Niranjan Patel, a resident of Vasna (Borsad), said a prayer meeting was organised in their village for the three women. Rekhaben and Sangitaben used to live with their husbands in Atlanta, Georgia, and were going towards South Carolina when the accident occurred. The villagers expressed grief during the prayer meeting, said Niranjan Patel. The accident victims were travelling in an SUV, according to Chief Deputy Coroner Mike Ellis from the Greenville County Coroners Office, Fox Carolina reported. He said the vehicle left the roadway on the right-hand shoulder, ran up the embankment, went through the cement bridge embankment, and jumped completely over all four lanes of traffic. It then went through some trees on the other side and down an embankment, he added.

Congress' 'factory of lies' won't work forever: BJP's Nirmala Sitharaman on party's manifesto promises Rejecting the BJP's claims that the Congress' election manifesto resembled that of the Muslim League, party president Mallikarjun Kharge on Saturday asserted that ''Modi's factory of lies'' won't work forever. Addressing an election rally at Kayakuchi in Barpeta district of Assam, he said unemployment is a big problem in the country and that 65 per cent of educated youths have no jobs. ''The INDIA bloc will surely come to power and stop the BJP. Modi's BJP will be decimated. Once our government comes to power, we will control price rise and our focus will be on poor people. We will fill up 30 lakh vacancies in government departments,'' he added. Terming Prime Minister Narendra Modi a ''sardar (leader) of liars'', Kharge charged him with lying about providing two crore jobs annually, bringing back black money to the country and giving Rs 15 lakh to each citizen, and doubling farmers' income. ''Modi's 'factory of lies' won't last forever. He even called the Congress manifesto Muslim League's manifesto and spoke lies about it,'' he added. Kharge also alleged that the BJP was ''looting'' the country's wealth and handing it over to the rich. ''PM Modi waived Rs 16 lakh crore loans of his few rich friends. The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. But we will never loot and divide the country like BJP and RSS that are experts in creating fights between communities, castes and religions,'' he claimed. He also criticised Modi for not visiting Manipur even once despite the state reeling under ethnic clashes since May last year. Kharge said that while party leader Rahul Gandhi led the 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' crisscrossing the country, Modi was working for 'Bharat todo' or dividing the nation. ''Prime Minister Modi is continuously attacking the Congress and the Gandhi family as he is scared and trembling in fear of losing power,'' he claimed. ''One who can't feel the pain of the poor does not have the right to stay in power,'' Kharge added. On the employment scenario in the country, he claimed, ''Joblessness is a major issue in India, with 65 per cent of the educated youths being jobless. We will reserve 50 per cent of posts for women. We will give Rs 1 lakh as apprenticeship stipend to every unemployed youth during his or her training period till he or she gets a proper job.'' Kharge addressed the massive crowd seeking votes for party candidates Deep Bayan for Barpeta constituency and Garjan Mushahary for Kokrajhar. ''You (Modi) always ask what Congress has done in 70 years. We ruled for 55 years and created the wealth that you and (Amit) Shah are selling now. You are destroying everything,'' he added. Kharge also attacked Modi for raking up food habits of people, and Mughal tenure in India. ''Modi was the chief minister of Gujarat and he did nothing there,'' he alleged, while criticising the Prime Minister for failing to control rising prices of essential commodities such as petrol, diesel and LPG, among others. Slamming Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma over an earlier post regarding caste system in India, Kharge claimed Sarma supports 'Manusmriti' and caste hierarchy as described in the book. ''He said Shudras should serve the higher castes. Such a person is your CM. I am ashamed that if such an educated person speaks like this, how will the country progress? If such Manuvadi thinking is there, how will we get equality?'' he questioned. Kharge, who is a Dalit, said that ''if Manu's philosophy is followed, then he would have to go and serve Sarma'', who is a Brahmin. In December last year, Sarma had uploaded an audio-visual post on his social media handles, including X and Facebook, that he claimed was from Sloka 44 of Sanyas Yoga from 18th chapter of Gita. The animated video stated that farming, cow-rearing and commerce are habitual and natural duties of the Vaishya, while serving the three 'varnas' -- Brahmin, Kshatriya and Vaishya -- is the natural duty of the Shudras. Sharing this video, Sarma had said, ''Lord Sri Krishna himself described the types of natural duties of Vaishya and Shudras.'' This sparked a massive political row with opposition leaders denouncing what they called the ''BJP's Manuvadi and regressive ideology''. Facing a volley of criticism, Sarma later deleted the post from all his social media platforms and apologised for uploading the post with casteist remarks.
Producer Anand Pandit to foray into Punjabi film industry
The veteran producer, who has backed numerous successful films in Hindi and regional languages including Gujarati, Marathi, and Kannada, is now entering Punjabi cinema After backing many successful films in seven Indian languages, producer Anand Pandit is now turning his attention to Punjabi cinema. The veteran producer's inaugural Punjabi movie is expected to be announced shortly. This move will also mark the expansion of Anand Pandit Motion Pictures' portfolio to include another regional language of India, aligning with the growing global demand for such content. I always like to explore movies in regional languages, especially following the COVID-19 outbreak, where local content has gained global prominence. There is an increasing demand for regional content among movie enthusiasts worldwide. We have already supported films in various languages, including Gujarati, Marathi, and South Indian languages such as Kannada. Punjabi cinema is now transforming into a major regional market that is enjoying wide popularity. We are confident that we can produce a film that will connect with the growing enthusiasm of Punjabi movie lovers, says Mr Pandit. He believes that another attraction that the regional industries offer is authentic storytelling, which will help in creating original content that reflect the nativity and uniqueness of each region. Regional films are new verticals for us. They allow us to explore different genres and a variety of stories. We have seen many Hindi films recently inspired by regional cinema and remade. The content is strong and unique with Universal appeal, making regional films more attractive irrespective of the language, he adds.

'Gyani Uncle at wedding': Priyanka responds to Modi's claim that Congress plans to confiscate gold
AHMEDABAD: In her first rally in the state in five years, Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra addressed a public gathering in Valsads Dharampur town on Saturday. This marks her first visit to South Gujarat. The last visit by a member of the Gandhi family to the area was by Rahul Gandhi during the Bharat Jodo yatra for the 2022 state assembly elections, near Vansda. Gandhi criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for allegedly spreading misinformation and neglecting the welfare of ordinary citizens. Targeting Modi's governance style and election strategies, she referred to him as 'Gyani Uncle' during her address, drawing a comparison to an authoritative figure imparting wisdom at a wedding ceremony. PM Modi isn't 'Superman' but mehengai' man: Priyanka Gandhi in Gujarat poll rally The Gyaani Uncle is in a position of authority and yet he is spouting 'bakwas' (nonsense), she remarked. She questioned the validity of Modi's statements, specifically his contentious comments regarding the Congress' alleged plans to confiscate gold from households using X-ray machines. His statements are filled with absurdity, as if he expects people to blindly accept them as undeniable truth. We have been in power for 55 years. Can any government actually enforce a scheme where an x-ray machine scans the amount of jewellery in your house and forcibly takes it away from you? Is it possible, she said. Do you trust this Gyani Uncle? Can we rely on anything that comes out of this uncle's mouth when he addresses the public? Is he truly the Prime Minister of this country, she questioned. Gandhi voiced her concerns regarding the Modi government's approach to addressing sexual harassment and violence against women, citing incidents such as the Hathras case and the reported harassment of women wrestlers by a BJP MP. She also accused the PM of undermining democracy, stating, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is weakening democracy and targeting the opposition. He accuses us of corruption while portraying himself as the sole epitome of purity. Modi has amassed immense wealth and wields boundless power, aided by an extensive network of influence and a vast media empire. In contrast, we are championing boundless truth, boundless justice, and boundless democracy. She added, He has hurled insults at our family relentlesslymother, father, grandmother, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother,husbandspared no one. But that doesn't faze us. Our chests are not measured in inches; they are made of iron. Free healthcare, equal pay for women, minimum daily wage: Key promises from Congress manifesto

Cong-AAP liars, don't make mistake of electing 'urban Naxals', Shah tells Bharuch voters
Cong-AAP liars, don't make mistake of electing 'urban Naxals', Shah tells Bharuch voters Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday said people must not make the mistake of voting for ''urban Naxals'' and asserted that the Congress and Aam Aadmi Party were ''anti-tribals''. Addressing a rally in Gujarat's Bharuch Lok Sabha constituency, where the AAP has fielded a candidate as part of its alliance with the Congress, he urged the people to vote for BJP's sitting MP Mansukh Vasava. ''You will never get a public representative like Manuskh Vasava. If you make a mistake, then some urban Naxal will take his place (as MP) and destroy this tribal region,'' Shah said. Mansukh Vasava is pitted against the AAP's sitting MLA Chaitar Vasava in Bharuch, which is part of south Gujarat that has a sizable presence of tribals. ''The Congress and AAP have come together to loot people. I have no hesitation in saying the Congress is an anti-tribal party and AAP will exploit tribals after getting their votes,'' Shah asserted. The Congress and AAP are spreading rumours that the BJP will change the Constitution and scrap reservations after it wins 400 Lok Sabha seats, he said, adding the grand old party is an ''expert'' and the Arvind Kejriwal-led party a ''sardar'' (chieftain) in spreading lies. ''These two liars have come together (as part of INDI alliance) in Bharuch,'' Shah said and pointed out that the Narendra Modi government has been in power for the past 10 years with a clear majority and could have changed the Constitution if it had any intention to do so. ''I am here to tell you Modi's guarantee is that he will neither touch reservations for Adivasis, Dalits or OBCs nor will he allow anyone to touch it,'' Shah said. The Congress and AAP are spreading lies that the proposed Uniform Civil Code (UCC) will take away the fundamental rights of tribals, Shah further claimed. ''I have seen the UCC bill, and it says UCC does not apply to the tribals. They (Congress and AAP) are spreading lies. I would like to tell thousands of tribals sitting here that Chaitar Vasava (AAP candidate) and company are spreading lies. Do not fall for their words because Modi is a friend of Adivasis,'' the BJP stalwart said. The Congress, during its 10 years in power at the Centre, allocated Rs 28,000 crore, while the Modi government has given Rs 1.33 lakh since 2014 for tribal development, he said. The number of Eklavya schools (which are residential ones for tribals) have risen from 90 under the Congress-led UPA rule to 740 now, while a district mineral fund has been set up with a corpus of Rs 75,000 crore to take care of water, education, health and nutrition needs of tribals, Shah said. Attacking the Congress on the Ram Temple issue, Shah said, ''We invited Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge (for the idol consecration of the Ram Temple on January 22) but they were concerned about their vote bank.'' Will Bharuch support those who do not participate in Lord Ram's idol consecration, Shah asked.
Tragic Accident Claims Lives of Three Indian Women in the United States
Washington: Three Indian women from Gujarat tragically lost their lives in an accident in the United States when their speeding vehicle lost control, crashed into a divider, and soared 20 feet into the air before colliding with trees on the opposite side of a bridge. The incident occurred on Interstate 85 in Greenville County, South Carolina. The victims have been identified as Rekhaben Dilipbhai Patel, Sangeetaben Bhaveshbhai Patel, and Manishaben Rajendrabhai Patel, all from Borsad tehsil of Anand district in Gujarat.The vehicle was found completely wrecked, wedged against a tree and shattered into multiple pieces. Chief Deputy Coroner Mike Ellis from the Greenville County Coroner's Office, speaking to foxcarolina.com, described the horrifying scene, stating, When the vehicle jumped all four lanes of traffic, it actually struck trees probably at least 20 feet above the ground. He added, When you have got family, probably related, three deceased is nothing that you want to ever see. The driver of the vehicle was injured and transported to the hospital for treatment. According to Ellis, the SUV was traveling at a speed above the posted limit. Very seldom do you see a vehicle that leaves the roadway at such a high rate of speed that it jumps 46 lanes of traffic and lands in the trees approximately 20 feet, he explained.He further mentioned that no other vehicles were involved in the accident, indicating that the high speed of the vehicle was the sole cause of the tragic incident.

Body of Fisherman Found Dead in Pakistani Jail to be Repatriated to Maharashtra
Body of Fisherman Found Dead in Pakistani Jail to be Repatriated to Maharashtra The body of a 45-year-old fisherman from a village in Maharashtra's coastal Palghar district, who died in Karachi jail in Pakistan, is likely to be brought back home in the next couple of days, an activist said. The fisherman, Vinod Laxman Koal from Goratpada village in Dahanu taluka of the district, was caught by the Pakistan agencies for entering the waters of the neighbouring country in October 2022. He was then lodged in a jail in Karachi, where he suffered a paralysis attack on March 8 this year and died during treatment on March 17, said Jatin Desai, a representative of the social organisation working for Indian prisoners jailed in Pakistan. Other Indian prisoners in the jail managed to convey the message about his death to Koal's family members, who took up the matter with the local MLA, who then raised the issue with the government, he said. A family member of the deceased fisherman said the family has been waiting for his body. Desai said Koal's mortal remains are likely to reach Dahanu within a couple of days by following all the protocols. The body will be brought from Pakistan to Dahanu via Amritsar, Ahmedabad, Pune and Mumbai, he said. According to Desai, a total of 35 fishermen hailing from Maharashtra and Gujarat languishing in Pakistani jails, including five from Dahanu, will be released soon and sent back home.

Southern India's Water Storage Falls to 17% of Reservoir Capacity
The Central Water Commission (CWC) recently released a bulletin regarding reservoir storage levels across various regions of India, revealing that the southern region, which includes Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu, is facing a significant reduction in water storage compared to historical averages. The southern region's 42 reservoirs, monitored by the CWC, have a total live storage capacity of 53.334 billion cubic meters (BCM), but the available live storage is currently only 8.865 BCM, representing just 17% of their total capacity. This figure is much lower than the storage levels from the same period last year (29%) and the ten-year average (23%), indicating worsening water scarcity and potential challenges for irrigation, drinking water supply, and hydroelectric power generation in these states. Meanwhile, the eastern region, comprising states like Assam, Odisha, and West Bengal, has shown improvement in water storage levels compared to last year and the ten-year average. In this region, 23 monitored reservoirs with a total live storage capacity of 20.430 BCM currently hold 7.889 BCM of water, representing 39% of their total capacity. Other regions are also facing challenges. The western region, consisting of Gujarat and Maharashtra, reports storage levels of 11.771 BCM, which is 31.7% of the total capacity of the 49 monitored reservoirs. This is notably lower than the storage levels of the previous year (38%) and the ten-year average (32.1%). Similarly, the northern and central regions also show declines in water storage levels compared to historical averages.

You must have seen, the BJP leaders have said that they want to change the Constitution and PM Modi contradicts that statement. This is a dangerous trend. This constitution has given you all the rights, then what's the need to change it? she asked. She further went on to slam the BJP for argeting opposition leaders. PM Modi is weakening the democracy.

Zaheer Khan picks Pant as exclusive wicket-keeper for T20 WC; suggests India debut for Yash Dayal
Zaheer Khan picks Pant as exclusive wicket-keeper for T20 WC; suggests India debut for Yash Dayal Former India pace spearhead Zaheer Khan has picked Rishabh Pant as the sole wicketkeeper in his team for the T20 World Cup while handing out international debut to left-arm seamer Yash Dayal to add a new dimension to the attack. One of Zaheer's most interesting selections was the 26-year-old Dayal, who represents Uttar Pradesh in domestic cricket and Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League. He has taken into account Mohammed Shami's injury layoff while picking his squad. ''When I talk about Yash Dayal, it's a floating spot when the 15 are announced because Mohammed Shami will not be available for the tournament. ''He's one bowler that if you need someone to bowl up, you have Yash Dayal. If you want a back-end bowler and if Siraj's form is spotty, he can be used there as well,'' Zaheer told Jio Cinema. Zaheer also selected Delhi Capitals' captain Pant as the only wicket-keeper in his squad, overlooking others such as Sanju Samson, KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan. ''Rishabh Pant is my only wicket-keeper. I have given more importance to bringing four pace bowlers. You don't want to sacrifice a fast bowler for another wicketkeeper. You have options like KL Rahul, Sanju Samson, and many want to see Dinesh Karthik. ''At this point, we can consider Mahendra Singh Dhoni as well because of his strike rate! I think they'll focus on current players like Samson, KL Rahul, and maybe even Jitesh Sharma. ''If you're building a team for a month-long tournament, your travelling reserve can be your wicketkeeper.'' Zaheer named 16 players in his squad, with the caveat that only one player between Gujarat Titans' captain Shubman Gill and Rajasthan Royals' opener Yashasvi Jaiswal will be selected as Rohit Sharma's opening partner. ''The toughest decision the selectors will have to make will be choosing one opener out of two terrific options. Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal, I think only one of them will make it because the think-tank will want flexibility in the team. ''A player can't be limited to just one role, they might need to move around the batting order.'' Zaheer Khan's India squad for T20 World Cup: Batters: Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill/Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rinku Singh All-Rounders: Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja Wicket-Keeper: Rishabh Pant Bowlers: Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh, Yash Dayal, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal.

Make Modi PM for third time to end terrorism and Naxalism: Shah
Porbandar: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday said if Narendra Modi continues to be the prime minister for the third consecutive term, he would end terrorism and Naxalism from the country and also make India the world's third largest economy.He was addressing an election rally at Porbandar in Gujarat in support of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidate Mansukh Mandaviya. Shah said that when Article 370 was scrapped, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi opposed the move, saying it would lead to a river of blood flowing in Kashmir. In the last five years, let alone the river of blood, nobody even dared to throw a stone there. PM Modi worked to finish terrorism and Naxalism from the country. When Manmohan Singh was the country's prime minister, anyone could enter the country from Pakistan and blow up bombs, the senior BJP leader said. When Pakistan carried out terrorist attacks in Pulwama and Uri, it forgot that Modi was the prime minister. Within 10 days, PM Modi carried out surgical and air strikes to finish off terrorists on Pakistan's soil, he said. Make Narendra Modi prime minister for the third time to finish terrorism and Naxalism from the country, Shah urged people at the rally. PM Modi has worked to secure the country and make it prosperous. In 10 years of its rule, the Congress party left the country's economy at 11th position. PM Modi brought it to the fifth position in just 10 years. And I give you a guarantee, make him prime minister for the third term, and India will become the third largest economy, he said.

GT eyes collective improvement against revamped RCB
GT eyes collective improvement against revamped RCB In need of a total reboot, Gujarat Giants will be wary of Royal Challengers Bengalurus newfound firepower in the middle-order when the two teams clash in the Indian Premier League here on Sunday. The Giants are now seventh on the table with eight points from nine matches, and they require a victory to float above the growing pile, constituted by Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals who are also on eight points. To begin with, the Gujarat side needs their pacers to step up. Their pace bowling unit has been underwhelming throughout this IPL. Mohit Sharma (10 wickets, economy: 10.35), Umesh Yadav (7 wickets, 10.55), Sandeep Warrier (5 wickets, 10.85) have leaked runs in plenty while backup quicks such as Spencer Johnson and Azmatullah Omarzai too have not inspired much confidence. Their spinners Rashid Khan (8 wickets), R Sai Kishore and Noor Ahmad (6 wickets each) have been steady without being spectacular. The troikas task will be even harder now considering RCB have found a flicker of hope in their middle-order consisting of Rajat Patidar and Cameron Green. They can take consolation from the fact that dew will not be a significant factor in a day game, but tackling Patidar, in particular, and Green need much more than help from conditions. After a modest beginning to the season, Patidar has shown smidgeons of his batting skills, especially against the spinners. He made forceful fifties while tackling Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy (KKR) and Mayank Markande (SRH) in the last two matches while batting through the middle phase. While his 23-ball 52 carried RCB nearly home against Kolkata, Patidars 20-ball 50 came in a winning cause against Hyderabad. The right-hander, whose strength is his excellent eye-hand coordination rather than innovation, will be eager to make a similar impact against the GT spinners. Green too was impressive during his 20-ball 37 against the Sunrisers that took RCB past the 200-run mark. It has also helped RCB reduce their dependency on Dinesh Karthik and Mahipal Lomror down the order for a late thrust, besides freeing opener Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis of the burden of scoring in almost every match. The GT batters would also like to take a cue from their RCB counterparts. Sai Sudharsan and skipper Shubman Gill have scored upwards of 300 runs in this IPL, making three combined fifties, but the GT middle-order has not really been able to do a follow-up act. The likes of David Miller (138 runs), Shahrukh Khan (30), Vijay Shankar (73) and Rahul Tewatia (153) have had fleeting moments but failed to carry on. The home side will require a heftier contribution from them against the RCB bowlers, who were on the money against SRH while defending 207. Their frontline pacers Mohammed Siraj (4-0-20-0) and Yash Dayal (3-0-18-1) were exceptional against a heavy-duty batting line-up, keeping it guessing with clever variations even on a smooth HCA Stadium surface. Leg-spinner Karn Sharma and part-time pacer Green picked up four wickets equally among them to support their lead bowlers. So, in a day-game they might be hoping for an even more improved show against a vacillating batting unit of GT. Teams (from): RCB: Faf du Plessis (c), Glenn Maxwell, Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Anuj Rawat, Dinesh Karthik, Suyash Prabhudessai, Will Jacks, Mahipal Lomror, Karn Sharma, Manoj Bhandage, Mayank Dagar, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Akash Deep, Mohammed Siraj, Reece Topley, Himanshu Sharma, Rajan Kumar, Cameron Green, Alzarri Joseph, Yash Dayal, Tom Curran, Lockie Ferguson, Swapnil Singh, Saurav Chauhan. GT: Shubman Gill (c), David Miller, Matthew Wade, Wriddhiman Saha, Kane Williamson, Abhinav Manohar, B. Sai Sudharsan, Darshan Nalkande, Vijay Shankar, Jayant Yadav, Rahul Tewatia, Noor Ahmad, Sai Kishore, Rashid Khan, Joshua Little, Mohit Sharma, Azmatullah Omarzai, Umesh Yadav, Shahrukh Khan, Sushant Mishra, Kartik Tyagi, Manav Suthar, Spencer Johnson, Sandeep Warrier, BR Sharath.

CSK Face Bruised SRH in Battle of Former Champions
CSK Face Bruised SRH in Battle of Former Champions Smarting from back-to-back losses, defending champion Chennai Super Kings will be desperate to return to winning ways when they face a formidable but bruised Sunrisers Hyderabad in their IPL match here on Sunday. CSK had a good start to the season under new skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad but they have been toppled by the Lucknow Super Giants twice in the last two games. It was an unfamiliar sight for the Yellow Brigade fans to see the Chepauk fortress being breached as LSG knocked down a target of 210 with ease, thanks to Marcus Stoinis' stunning hundred. With four wins and as many losses in eight games, CSK are currently at fifth spot, tied with eight points with Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans and will be keen to find their mojo back as things can quickly go south as the race to playoffs get heated up. Come Sunday, CSK will be up against third-ranked Sunrisers Hyderabad, who have twice broken the record of highest IPL total this season but are coming into the game following a failure of their ultra-batting approach. CSK's batting has hovered around skipper Gaikwad, who pulled off only his second IPL century the other day, and the in-form Shivam Dube, who once again impressed with yet another fifty. While Ravindra Jadeja too chipped in with the bat, the inconsistent form of top-order is a problem. Both Rachin Ravindra and Dary Mitchell's lack of runs is a concern and it has forced CSK to shuffle their batting order. Considering their bowling, the hosts had to toil hard against LSG, given the unexpectedly huge amount of dew at Chepauk that took their spinners out of the game and the visitors made full advantage of it during their 213-run chase. While the CSK pacers managed to capture the four LSG wickets to fell, the spinners struggled to grip the ball, whereas the constant misfields did not help them either. A high-flying SRH, on the other hand, were brought to the ground by RCB when they suffered only their third defeat of the season at home by 35 runs on Thursday. However, it is unlikely to deter the SRH batters who would fancy their chances against an inconsistent CSK. Against RCB, SRH's top and middle-order failed collectively while chasing, forcing head coach Daniel Vettori to admit that the idea of going all out with the bat in the second innings might not be the right thing to do. There is unlikely to be any shuffling in the visiting batting order, but Aiden Markram might need to step up, having been dismissed in singles figures in the last two contests. In bowling, senior seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar is the only one who could be at the receiving end, having managed to claim just a wicket in the last three fixtures. With the likes of Umran Malik, Fazalhaq Farooqi and Akash Singh waiting in the wings, SRH may think of given a chance, especially to the Jammu pacer, who has the ability to bowl above 150 kmph. Given that SRH won four of their last five games this season while defending, they would love to bat first but both teams will also keep an eye on the unpredictable dew factor. Squads: Chennai Super Kings: MS Dhoni (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Devon Conway, Ruturaj Gaikwad (c), Ajinkya Rahane, Moeen Ali, Shivam Dube, Rajvardhan Hangargekar, Mitchell Santner, Tushar Deshpande, Matheesha Pathirana, Simarjeet Singh, Prashant Solanki, Maheesh Theekshana, Shaik Rasheed, Nishant Sindhu, Ajay Mandal, Mukesh Choudhary, Rachin Ravindra, Shardul Thakur, Daryl Mitchell, Sameer Rizvi, Mustafizur Rahman and Avinash Rao Aravelly. Sunrisers Hyderabad: Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Aiden Markram, Abdul Samad, Nitish Reddy, Shahbaz Ahmed, Pat Cummins (c), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jaydev Unadkat, T Natarajan, Mayank Markande, Umran Malik, Anmolpreet Singh, Glenn Phillips, Rahul Tripathi, Washington Sundar, Upendra Yadav, Jhatavedh Subramanyan, Sanvir Singh, Vijayakanth Viyaskanth, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Marco Jansen, Akash Maharaj Singh and Mayank Agarwal.

CAT slaps Rs 50K fine on retired IPS officer for abusing legal process
HYDERABAD: A division bench of the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT), Hyderabad, comprising Dr Lata Baswara Patne (Judicial Member) and Shalini Misra (Administrative Member), has imposed a fine of Rs 50,000 on Rajnish Kumar Rai, a retired IPS officer and assistant professor at the Indian School of Management, Ahmedabad for abusing the legal process by repeatedly challenging his transfer. The fine is to be paid within one month from the date of the order to Sishuvihar, Women, Children, Disabled, and Senior Citizens Department in Hyderabad district. He was fined for repeatedly challenging his transfer on 12 June, 2017 from Shillong, Meghalaya, to Chittoor in Andhra Pradesh. Despite initial dismissals of his appeals by the tribunal and subsequent rejection by the Delhi High Court, Rai continued his legal battle by filing a Special Leave Petition (SLP) before the Supreme Court. CAT observed that Rai, being a highly educated individual and presently an assistant professor at IAM Ahmedabad, ought to have demonstrated better judgment. Rais pursuit of legal remedies across multiple forums, including the Gujarat High Court and the Supreme Court, in regard to the charge memo dated 16 February, 2023, which is currently the subject matter of the SLP before the Supreme Court, was deemed an abuse of the judicial process. The bench highlighted Rais misuse of legal avenues, noting his earlier failed attempts at redressal, including a dismissed original application (OA) at the CAT Ahmedabad Bench and an unsuccessful appeal at the Gujarat High Court. The CAT Bench emphasised that Rai, as a high-ranking officer, should serve as a role model for society. However, his actions were found to be contrary to the principles of judicial prudence and fair legal practice. In conclusion, the CAT Hyderabad Bench dismissed Rais current OA, citing its lack of maintainability, given the ongoing proceedings in the Supreme Court. The imposition of costs of `50,000 serves as a deterrent against the abuse of legal processes by individuals.

Sunita Kejriwal to hold roadshow in East Delhi today
NEW DELHI: Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwals wife, Sunita Kejriwal, will kick off her election campaigning for the AAP with a mega roadshow in the East Delhi Lok Sabha constituency on Saturday, as per the party. It would be followed by another roadshow in West Delhi on Sunday when she will seek votes and blessings of the people for her husband. According to minister Atishi, Kejriwals campaign will extend beyond Delhi to Punjab, Gujarat, and Haryana. The BJPs attempt to arrest Kejriwal has backfired, as people nationwide are rallying in his support and are poised to respond with votes, she added. She underscored that the people of Delhi, Punjab, and the entire country stand with Arvind Kejriwal, and their support will translate into votes for AAP. Immediately after the imposition of the model code of conduct, the BJP-ruled central government and its political weapon, ED, arrested the Chief Minister of Delhi, Atishi said. I want to tell BJP that their gamble has backfired completely. Whether it is Delhi-Punjab or the rest of the country, the common people are protesting against the arrest of Kejriwal, protesting against the dictatorship of PM Narendra Modi, protesting against this attack on democracy. The people are unanimously saying that they will answer the arrest of Kejriwal with their votes, the senior AAP leader said. Atishi said in protest against the chief ministers arrest, his wife Sunita Kejriwal, will campaign to seek blessings for Kejriwal and vote for party candidates. She said, Sunita Kejriwal will start campaigning from East Delhi tomorrow by holding a roadshow. The next day, she will hold a roadshow in West Delhi to seek blessings for her husband from the people. Meanwhile, on Friday, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal campaigned for the partys Lok Sabha candidate from East Delhi Kuldeep Kumar. She participated in a padyatra and door-to-door campaign in Vivek Vihar area of the Shahdara assembly constituency along with Delhi Assembly Speaker Ram Niwas Goel, the party said in a statement. She interacted with several women. She discussed their issues and appealed to them to vote in large numbers. Now I am back and shall be campaigning for AAP. I shall be interacting with women and girls in general and shall appeal to them to come out and exercise their right to vote, she said.
My memory of elections is deeply associated with Prannoy Roy, Indias foremost and finest psephologist. The first televised coverage of an election result in India was produced during the 1989 general election. Roy who began his career as a TV journalist by covering it for Doordarshan and then as anews presenterin the international news show The World This Week became a household name. Thirty-five years since that coverage, we enter yet another election season, and the question we need to ask is: Is India an electoral autocracy? That we hold an election on time, and that in every state and general election, the losing side and the party have unquestioningly accepted the result is a clear indication of our continuing faith in the electoral process. The same cannot be said even of the US elections. In India, no party has ever received more than 50 per cent of the vote share, so we have always had an opposition, though it has weakened considerably. The electoral process in India does have its challenges issues such as voter fraud, corruption, and the influence of money in politics pose significant hurdles to free and fair elections. Moreover, Indias vast geographical expanse and diverse population present logistical challenges in ensuring equitable access to the electoral process, particularly in remote and marginalised regions. However, we do go to great lengths to ensure franchise. In Navin Chawlas book, Every Vote Counts , he shares the story of a polling station that was set up in the village of Banej in Junagadh district in Gujarat for the 2009 election. Located in the heart of Indias only lion sanctuary, it was set up for a single voter Pujari Bharatdas Dashandas. A presiding officer and two other officials travelled through almost 40km of dense jungle, accompanied by a couple of policemen presumably to keep the lions at bay! Where it all began The roots of elections hark back to ancient Greece but it was in the Roman Republic that the concept of representative government and periodic elections emerged. The Roman model of electing officials to represent the interests of the people laid the foundation for modern democratic practices. When the greatest Roman orator Marcus Cicero ran for the highest office in the Roman Republic in 64BCE, his younger brother Quintus Tullius decided to give him some practical advice in the form of a campaign guide. This was published by Princeton University Press as How to Win an Election: An Ancient Guide for Modern Politicians. Promise everything to everyone. Give people hope, at least until the election then inevitably you will let them down. Would you believe such nuggets date back over 2,000 years? Medieval Europe saw the emergence of feudalism but the Magna Carta in 1215 marked a pivotal moment in the struggle for democratic principles. Over time, this led to the establishment of parliamentary systems and the gradual expansion of suffrage. The Enlightenment further fuelled the ideals of democracy and individual rights, inspiring the American and French Revolutions. The 19th century witnessed the expansion of suffrage and the democratisation of electoral systems in many countries. Movements for womens suffrage, workers rights, and civil rights challenged entrenched power structures and fought for equal participation in governance. Fast forward to the 20th century, one can see significant advancements in electoral practices and technology, transforming the nature of elections. The advent of mass media, political parties, and campaign strategies reshaped electoral campaigns, enabling candidates to reach wider audiences and mobilise support. However, the century also saw challenges to democratic norms, including the rise of authoritarian regimes and the manipulation of elections for political gain. Polls today Today, elections face new challenges, including disinformation, voter suppression, and the influence of money. Tech advancements have transformed the way elections are conducted, raising concerns about cybersecurity and the integrity of electoral systems. Indias first general elections were held between 25 October 1951 and 27 March 1952 (of a population of 34.8 crore, 17.3 crore voted). Schoolteacher Shyam Saran Negi was the first to cast a vote for independent India. The Election Commission of India, an autonomous body, was established on 25 January 1950, so the adult franchise was effective from the very day India became a republic. Unlike in the West, democratic institutions in India are not well studied (eg. the last book about the PMs office The Indian Prime Minister: Office and Powers was written in 1976 by LN Sharma although the PMO was created in 1960). Of the few good books on elections, one of my favourites is Rajdeep Sardesais 2014: The Election that Changed India . This election has been regarded as the most important in Indian history since 1977. It saw the decimation of the ruling Congress party, a spectacular victory for the BJP and a new style of campaigning that broke every rule in the political game. A page-turner, this is political storytelling at its best. The Verdict: Decoding Indias Elections by Prannoy Roy and Dorab R Sopariwala, offers a detailed analysis, drawing on data, anecdotes, and interviews to unravel the complexities of electoral politics in the worlds largest democracy. Both these books are worth revisiting, especially before an election season! An Undocumented Wonder: The Making of the Great Indian Election by SY Quraishi delves into the behind-the-scenes workings of the Election Commission of India, offering insights into the planning, execution, and challenges of conducting our elections. As India readies itself for a mammoth exercise in democracy about 969 million are eligible to cast their vote in the upcoming election more than the populations of North America and the European Union combined Prime Minister Narendra Modi is standing for a rare third consecutive term in power, something that has happened for the first time since Nehru.
